I woke up from my sleep in a dark light, and squinted for a few seconds before I could see my surroundings.

"Don't wake up from you? Would you like some water? ”

I looked at the person who spoke and found that it was Fang Ruoxi. As she spoke, she handed me a bottle of water, along with a damp cloth in her hand.

"Use this to cover your mouth and nose, Wen Shiming let's rinse it with water every once in a while, I'm just going to change it for you."

"Thank you." I thanked him, first took the water bottle and drank two sips, and then covered my mouth and nose with a damp cloth, thinking about the sound I heard just now, it seemed to be a little different from Fang Ruoxi's usual voice, with a slight hoarseness, but it was not too bad, so I didn't care, and continued to talk to Fang Ruoxi, "How long have I been asleep?" ”

"Ah, a few hours, they asked Yu Pu just now, I forgot."

Fang Ruoxi laughed a little embarrassedly, and I also smiled at her slightly, and then remembered that my mouth and nose were covered, and she couldn't see it when she smiled, so she said.

"It's okay, I'll ask him later."

Sensing that I had woken up, someone was walking towards me, and it was not until they approached that I could see clearly through a faint light that it was Lu Haisheng.

"Are you awake, are your eyes better?"

Lu Haisheng's voice was low, with a slight hoarseness, but this hoarseness seemed to be more serious. Both of their voices became hoarse, did that mean anything?

I blinked, felt it carefully, and replied, "It should be fine, my eyes don't hurt anymore." But you, why do I think your voices are getting a little hoarse? ”

"It's probably because there's too much air here, so my throat hurts." Fang Ruoxi said and coughed lightly twice, "They all have a little sore throat more or less, don't you feel it?" ”

I shook my head, "No, I'm fine, probably when I was sleeping, the damage to my eyes and respiratory tract with nitric acid was repaired together." ”

"Well, in that case, we don't have to worry about this for the time being, since the room's accelerated healing feature can repair the effect of this air on us, then at least maintaining this simple protection now can allow us to survive in this environment." Lu Haisheng said, turning his head to look in the direction of the cave entrance, "What I'm more worried about now is when the rain will stop." ”

I followed the wolf's tooth gaze, and it was already dark outside, and I could tell from the sound of the rain that it had not stopped. There were two more people standing at the entrance of the cave, and they seemed to be saying something, and one of them came up to us.

I looked around the cave and saw a few people at some distance from us, and quickly counted them, and it was five people, and the other side was closer to us, but there was another person at some distance away, and it looked like it should be a girl.

In this way, the person who is still standing by the entrance of the cave and the person who is walking towards us must be Lin Ya and Yu Pu, and judging from the body shape, it should be Lin Ya who is walking over.

When the man got closer, it was indeed Lin Ya.

"What about Yu Pu? Still at the entrance of the cave? Fang Ruoxi asked Lin Ya, "Didn't Wen Shiming keep us away from the entrance of the cave, she said that if the concentration is too high, it will cause us to be unable to breathe." ”

"I told him, but he didn't listen and insisted on staying there." Lin Ya shook his head a little helplessly, "I don't know why he is so insistent, Wen Shiming has gone to warn him, he just said that he knew, but he refused to leave the entrance of the cave." ”

I glanced in the direction of the cave entrance, and I could only see the general outline of Yu Pu. Why did Yu Pu insist on being at the entrance of the cave? I frowned slightly, I always felt that his insistence was inexplicable and unreasonable, or maybe there was some reason but I didn't notice what it was?

"It's been raining for five hours, and I don't know when it's going to stop."

Hearing Lin Ya also talk about the rain, my thinking was diverged, and the most important thing now is not to consider Yu Pu's personal insistence, but to consider the current situation.

I thought back to the rain before I fell asleep: "Is it a little lighter now?" It doesn't feel as big as it was at the beginning. ”

"It's a little smaller." Lin Ya nodded, "But it has never stopped, it is impossible to go out in the rain, and the corrosiveness is still very strong." ”

"So why don't we just wait here for it to stop?" Fang Ruoxi opened her mouth and proposed, "Anyway, we also brought some food and water, and now the problem of nitric acid destroying the respiratory tract can also be solved through sleep, can't we wait here for the rain to stop?" ”

"Nope." Lu Haisheng said in a deep voice, "There are so many people, our little food can last for two days at most, and the biggest problem now is not food, but water, which can't last tomorrow." Also, being in a room does speed up our body's self-healing, but there is a limit. We have already checked this cave, but there is only one exit from the cave, and if the rain does not stop, the concentration of nitric acid in the cave will increase and increase, and when it reaches a certain point, we will not be able to heal ourselves. ”

"Wolf Lu Haisheng is right." I looked outside the cave and was a little worried, "None of us know how long this rain will last, let alone for another month or two, and now we can't stand it for three or four days in a row." What's more, we haven't found any clues about escape here, and waiting for the rain to stop in this cave is tantamount to sitting still. ”

"How could it be! If we can't get out and can't get out, we can't wait here, so what are we going to do? You don't really have to die here, do you? Fang Ruoxi asked with some concern.

I shook my head, "That's just the worst-case scenario, I don't think it's going to rain forever." ”

"I've seen the soil here before, and it's still quite wet, so it shouldn't have been long since the last rain. Besides, I don't think this room is the only one that is dangerous, maybe it's only the least danger. I sighed, "Now we don't have any clue to escape, let's wait and see, if after five hours, the rain doesn't stop, we'll try to get out of the hole." ”

Lu Haisheng had no objection to my words, Lin Ya also nodded, although Fang Ruoxi was still very worried, but he didn't say anything, and nodded in the same way.

"Since this has been decided, then you can rest first, and sleep for a while, and I will wake you up in five hours." I said and stood up, thought for a moment, and took a bottle of water, "I'm going to talk to the others as well, let them rest." I'll remember to change the cloth you wear over your mouth and nose every once in a while, so sleep in peace. ”

After listening to my words, Fang Ruoxi was relieved to fall asleep, Lin Ya thought for a moment, and nodded to prepare to rest.

"It's okay, then let's take a rest first, and call us at any time if we have something, don't leave."

"Okay."

After watching Lin Ya also find a place to lie down, I looked at Lu Haisheng, who was still beside me, and said softly, "You can also go and rest, I will call you if there is something." ”

"Well, I'll accompany you to talk to them before resting." Lu Haisheng agreed and walked up to me, "I'll go to a place closer to the entrance of the cave to rest, I'll wake up if something happens." ”

"Ah" I remembered Lu Haisheng's special sleeping skills, so I didn't say anything more, and nodded, "Okay." ”

After discussing, Lu Haisheng accompanied me to the others.

After saying it to Chen Si, Chen Si didn't say anything, and just lay down and began to rest. The other five didn't seem to be aware of the accelerated self-recovery in the room, and a few of them, slightly surprised, thanked me for telling them about it, and then explained to me who they would arrange for their own wet cloth change.

Since it saves me business, I naturally won't force me to help them, and after watching them arrange for people to take turns changing wet cloths, I walked towards Yu Pu with Lu Haisheng.

"Yu Pu."

When Yu Pu heard me call him, he turned to look at me, but he didn't speak. The entrance to the cave was brighter than the inside of the cave, and I could vaguely see the look on Yu Pu's face—no expression.

"What have you been doing at the entrance of the cave? The density of nitric acid here is much higher than in the cave. I sniffed the smell around me and frowned slightly, and covered the wet cloth more tightly, "Go inside and rest and sleep, self-recovery when you fall asleep can have an effect, in order to ensure that your respiratory system will not be corroded and cause problems, and besides, you are tired from standing here all the time." Go take a break, I'll change that cloth for you every once in a while. ”

Yu Pu was silent for a few seconds and didn't speak, and just when I felt more and more strange, he said lightly, "Thank you, although the concentration of nitric acid here is higher than that inside, but it's not a big problem, I'll just rest here for a while." ”

Compared with Lu Haisheng's voice, Yu Pu's voice was obviously much more hoarse, and he looked as if he was taking a deep breath

Not a big problem? I think it's a big problem!

"No, you have to go inside." I frowned, "Listen to how hoarse your voice is?" Does staying here do you any special purpose? If not, then you have to go inside. I think you're a smart guy, and if you have to joke with your life, at least give me a reason to do it. ”

Yu Pu looked at me and was silent and didn't speak, I stood here with him in a stalemate, and after a while, Lu Haisheng, who was beside me, spoke.

"Yu Pu, go inside and take a rest, you should know that here, your life is not just a matter of yours, if something happens to you, it will also be a burden for the rest of us."

Yu Pu looked at the wolf fang, turned his head to look again, was silent for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go drink saliva first." ”

"Hey, wait!" I stopped Yu Pu, "Lend me your watch, I'll wake you up in five hours, and we'll try to get out in the rain before the rain stops." ”

Yu Pu nodded and handed me his pocket watch. After watching me take it, Yu Pu finally walked towards the cave. I looked at the pocket watch in my hand, and after confirming the time, I looked at Lu Haisheng and said, "Okay, you can also go inside to rest, I'm watching here." ”

"Hmm" Lu Haisheng agreed, but didn't move, just looked at me.

"What's wrong?" I asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just think ,,, this is really you."

I was stunned for a moment, and before I understood what Lu Haisheng meant, he had already turned his head and walked towards the cave. Has anything changed about the real me?

I couldn't think of a reason, Lu Haisheng went to rest again I couldn't ask him, I decided not to think about it for the time being, and turned my head to look at the situation outside the cave.

This look scared my scalp.
